I do consider myself a scientist because I do scientific experiments about different animals, such as rats and dogs (I don't physically harm them). I observe things such as what kinds of things they eat and how they react with each other. I also observe birds and elk when I have the chance to. I observe what kinds of food birds a willing to eat I observe the patterns they fly in and if I get a chance there predators. Fish are also on my list of animals to observe but I don't live near any lakes that have fish so I can only observe fish when I go fishing with my family. Insects are always exciting to watch because there is something new every day. One of the new things I figured out was that if you get a whole army of ants they could take down a small dog or cat. Scientists also make inferences when they can't study vary much further, I have made inferences about animals like fish because I can't really swim down there with them. This is why I consider myself a scientist.
